Justification Songtext
von Dag Nasty

We have tried and failed
We have stumbled and fallen
We have tried a new taste
And we spit it back out
We have taken a left turn
When we meant to turn right
We lost sight of our origins
But our past never lost sight of us
Lost sight of us
It′s not emulation - 'cause that′s not this hard
Not imitation - 'cause that won't take you far
Not digression - ′cause I′m falling straight up
It is progression - I'm not afraid to stand up
I don′t know what I expected
But I expected it to be great
I said "I'm trying my hardest"
But he didn′t like the tape


Take a look at what you're doing
And tell me I′m too late
You say we're walking backwards
Well, that dead horse sure can run
It sure can run
The truth
I know I can
I know I will
I know - I know what I have to do
And now you'll listen
And I hope it won′t hurt
I′ve seen your poison
You've done your worst
I′ve seen your better
And I can't believe it′s true
You've lost the truth
That used to live inside of you
